//------------------------------// // DOCUMENT PV-001 // Story: THE PONYVILLE INCIDENT // by A Sassy Vulture //------------------------------// DOCUMENT PV-001 RECOVERED AT GROUND ZERO RECOVERED BY EQUESTRIAN ROYAL HAZMAT TEAM TOP SECRET --------------------- Day one: Alrighty, so, I finally got this diary after Fluttershy told me I should for weeks on end. I finally bought one and a new set of quills from Quills and Sofas, so I am ready to log all my adventures in Ponyville, the ones that aren't important enough to send to the Princess. ---------------------- Day two: I couldn't believe what happened! A whole swarm of parasprites just ripped through Ponyville after Fluttershy found one at the edge of the Everfree Forest. We got rid of them just as the Princess came, and we didn't have to explain why the town was almost destroyed. Thank Celestia I have this diary, because the Princess would not be too happy if I sent her a letter about this. I honestly don't know why I didn't get one sooner. ---------------------- Day three: I don't think the parasprites are really gone. Earlier today Rainbow Dash found a pony lying on the ground. We identified her as Carrot Top. She was filled to the brim with parasprites, and it looked like her body was about to burst. Suddenly, the parasprites just flew out of her body, and it looked like they ate out all of her insides. Nopony has seen any parasprites since earlier. It is really hard to write this, Carrot Top was a good pony. Casualties: 1 ----------------------- Day four: Another body was found today, we found out it was Bon-Bon. Lyra ran into town screaming, and everypony ran to where Bon-Bon was. The same thing happened to her as Carrot Top. I don't know how Lyra is going to survive after losing her best friends. It would be like me losing one of my best friends, and I pray to Celestia that doesn't happen. Casualties: 2 ----------------------- Day five: Everypony tried to forget what happened these past few days, but it's really hard to. I don't want any other ponies to die for no reason. Those ponies didn't do anything to deserve this! Casualties: 2 ----------------------- Day six: Fluttershy came flying into town faster than Rainbow Dash ever has. She came screaming about how she found a pile of bodies filled with parasprites near the Everfree Forest. We ran out to see what other poor ponies had become victims of the parasprites. One of them...was...Zecora. She'll never rhyme again. Fluttershy was out collecting flowers to put on the ponies' graves, she is going to need a lot more now. Casualties: 10 ------------------------ Day ten: Sorry diary, I haven't had time to write any more in you, but this is important. I have been helping ponies to prepare for the parasprite pandemic as best I can, but I just don't know how we are going to make it all through. Casualties: 27 ------------------------- Day eleven: Fluttershy. Casualties: 28 ------------------------ Day twelve: It pains me to say it, but I think that Pinkie Pie may have caused this. I did some research and found that while music does calm them down, it later causes them to become bloodthirsty and vicious, and more research led me to an article in the Cloudsdale Courier, from about 50 years ago. It talked about a pandemic that happened, with parasprites. I am surprised this is my first time hearing about this. I am not going to tell anypony that I think it's Pinkie's fault this is happening, I don't want anything bad to happen. She was just doing what she knew she had to do. Casualties: 47 ---------------------- Day fifteen: Another pile of bodies, I think Derpy was one of them. Walking down the line of empty skins makes me sick...and it keeps growing longer. We found a live one today though, she stumbled into Ponyville, missing one eye and foaming at the mouth. We tried as hard as we could to get the parasprites out, but they multiplie and attacked us, I think they got Nurse Redheart too. Why do these ponies have to die? Casualties: 84 --------------------- Day seventeen: Lyra, Cheerilee, Big Mac, Granny Smith, so many more... I have sent the Princess at least a hundred letters, and I haven't gotten one response. Why won't the Princess help us?! Casualties: 114 -------------------- Day nineteen: Yesterday I saw Princess Celestia fly above the town. I called up to her, but she either didn't hear me, or ignored me. Then, she created a magical force field around the town. She looked at me, and then flew away. I can't believe she would do this. Leaving Ponyville for dead?! I just don't know what to do.... Casualties: 236 -------------------- Day twenty-two: Me, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack are holed up inside a...hole. Underground. I have to use my magic to light the room. Rainbow Dash is fooling with her mane, she looks bored. Pinkie Pie's hair is flat. Applejack is asleep. I don't know where Rarity is, it's possible the parasprites got her. Spike...he disappeared too. I keep asking why this is happening, an I get no answer... Casualties: 301 ------------------- Day twenty-three: I made the mistake of telling the others my theory about Pinkie Pie causing it. Applejack grabbed Pinkie by the throat and screamed in her face. I could hardly belive what I was seeing. Rainbow Dash started to hit Pinkie. I had to intervene with my magic and make them all calm down. I'll need to sleep with one eye open if I want to keep Pinkie Pie alive. I hope Applejack and Rainbow don't go crazy again. Casualties: 458 -------------------- Day twenty-six: Rainbow and Pinkie are gone. It horrifies me to think what may have happened, but I dare not go out into the world to find them. It's just me and Applejack now. Casualties: 689 ------------------- Day twenty-seven: Applejack attacked ME today. I couldn't believe what was happening. I can't belive what I did. I pushed her out of the shelter. I heard her scream, oh yes, and I heard her holler to let her back in, and when I opened the door, all there was was an Applejack husk. I picked it up, and hung it on the wall. It looks nice. Casualties: I don't even care, I have Applejack to accompany me. ------------------- Day thirty: Ya know, it's not so bad being the only pony in Ponyville left. I have all the food I need, I found the empty bodies of all my friends, and they are all here with me. All I have to do is avoid the parasprites, which isn't to hard when you can turn invisible and teleport. Casualties: I don't know, but I know I'm the last pony in Ponyville. -------------------- Day fourty-four: How in the hay did I forget about you?! I have just been hanging out with my friends, we go on tons of adventures, when the parasprites aren't around. Just yesterday Rarity told me a story about how she made the prettiest little chapeau. It's nice having all my friends here with me. -------------------- Day fifty: I think the parasprites found me. I can hear them banging up against the walls of my house. I moved back in here when that hole couldn't fit enough of my friends. I am surprised they haven't just eaten through the walls already. Oh...here comes one now. Yep, here they come. Well, nothing bad will happen because all my best friends are here with me! -------------------- END DOCUMENT.
